Hey everyone! I just wrapped up buying parts for my new gaming PC, and I'm looking for some feedback. Here's what I've got:
- **CPU**: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X
- **GPU**: PNY RTX 5080 16GB ARGB OC Triple Fan
- **Motherboard**: ASUS TUF GAMING B650-E WIFI
- **Memory**: Acer HT200 DDR5-6000 CL30 16GB x2 (total 32GB)
- **SSD 1**: Kingston KC3000 2TB NVMe M.2 PCIe 4.0
- **SSD 2**: Crucial T500 2TB NVMe M.2 PCIe 4.0
- **CPU Cooler**: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Digital ARGB
- **SSD Cooler**: Thermalright M.2 Type A & B SSD Heatsinks
- **Case**: LIAN LI Vector V100R Black
- **Fans 1**: Arctic P12 PWM PST ARGB x2 (120mm)
- **Fans 2**: Arctic P14 PWM PST ARGB x2 (140mm)
- **Power Supply**: MSI MPG A850GS PCIE5
I haven't started building it yet, as all the parts are still in their boxes. I'm a bit concerned about the power supply; it's 850W and I want to slightly overclock both the CPU and GPU. My friend thinks it should be enough, but I'd love to hear what you all think. Is 850W sufficient for this setup?
Thanks for any advice!

Looks like a great build! The 850W PSU will handle everything without a problem. Just be aware that if you go for heavy overclocking, you might want to monitor your power usage just to be safe.
Your power supply is totally fine for this build. You’ve got a solid setup there!
Thanks for the reassurance!
Everything looks good, but you might consider a motherboard that supports PCIe5 slots without breaking the bank. Minor issue though, you’ve got a great rig for $2000!
Awesome, thanks for the tip!
